Women & Biking Winter Cycling Workshop

How to dress yourself and your bike for comfortable winter riding–a workshop for women

It’s all about the layers…but what kind?

You don’t have to ditch your bike once the weather turns cold or it gets sloppy outside. Learn about how to dress yourself and your bike to enjoy biking year-round. From mittens, to gloves, to the in-between, we will discuss the must-haves and optional items for optimal comfort.

Show & Tell

There is so much more to learn and share! If you have a favorite winter riding item or product that you’d like to tell others about, please bring it along!

Event accommodations

This event is free and BYOB. We will provide some light snacks. If you know you’ll be extra hungry feel free to BYOFood.

Do I need to bring my bike?
